US EditionKazakhstan to allow hunting once endangered antelopes
- Kazakhstan announced it will allow hunting of saiga antelopes, formerly endangered, due to their impact on farming across the country in 2025.
- The decision follows the rapid population growth of about 4.1 million saigas, which the government says now threatens thousands of square kilometres of farmland.
- Saigas, identifiable by their trunk-like snouts, faced massive poaching after the Soviet Union's collapse, largely due to demand for their horns in traditional medicine.

- The exact hunting start date and quota remain undecided, while the population may rise to five million by year-end, posing continued challenges for farm protection.
